Sir, I never comment on YouTube videos. However I just wanted to say this has been the most helpful no-BS video I have watched in a long time. The value in this video is insane. You've managed to teach me something in 13 minutes that my university professors were barely able to teach me in 4 years. As a mainly frontend Dev looking to become Full-Stack, I now have an actual understanding of the backend architecture that was so unclear from other learning sources. I honestly want to say thank you from the bottom of my heart. You gained a subscriber.

This might be my favorite video of the year. Such great info, puts so many terms I've heard into context. This answered many questions I was afraid to ask. Such high information density, not a second wasted. Thanks Simon!!

I work at amazon and this video is far better than the trainings they provide to their employees itself.

Even as a software engineer I can’t believe how good you are at breaking this stuff down

My god the clarity is incredible. The visuals, narration, and expiation are spot on. So glad I found this channel, keep up the good work!

I’ve been self-learning code for around 5 months, initially wanted to take a go at fullstack, but backend has always intimidated me. You made it so clear that I’m intrigued by it all over again. Thank you for sharing this!

I can’t express how incredible it is to get a clear-cut explanation like this. Thank you!

Such a fantastic compact video. Can't ask for more. You have made me understand the entire cycle which I was struggling to understand. Hats off.

Fantastic work explaining complicated concepts so clearly and with simple examples. This is indeed a rare gift to have.

You packed so much information efficiently in a 12 minutes video. Enjoyed it

I almost felt obligated to make a comment as I finished this video. YouTube is my primary learning platform for tech and I have spend thousands of hours in this platform over a couple of years. But this is by far the most no bs, to the point, clean practical explanation I have seen. I know a lot of these elements but I am finally able to visualize them interact with one another like how I would understand the working of a car when I inspect the car and it’s internals physically. Thank you

for your incredible efforts, intention to share this knowledge and the time.

By far the best explanatory video on internet I must say. Not a single second wasted. Straight to the point. Perfectly explained. Thanks mate!

Ruqaya Fathma

This is the best explanation of Backend development I've ever seen on YT so far. Thanks Simon !

SSJSwisher

You made the path for my full stack dev career so much more clear. Great video.

Thendo Ronny Ramashia

This is hands down the BEST, and I mean THE BEST video explaining backend that I’ve come across. As someone who’s learning Front End having already begun with backend, you’ve honestly simplified backend in a nutshell.

Edward Grigoryan

This video is honestly an incredible piece of work. It is the best breakdown I have ever seen of the topic I have yet encountered. This really helps me as a product manager understand what the software dev team does. Thanks!

Hope you're having a wonderful day

This is one of the most clear and concise explanations for what a modern backend is, thank you

Dana Kaboom

Nice! You are one of those rare people who know how to explain complex concepts very clearly and smoothly. Subscribed.
